A new infographic by @somospostpc compares the percentage of screen versus bezel for top smartphones.

The top five devices with the most screen to bezel are the LG G2, Note 3, LG G Pro, Galaxy S4 and Nexus 5.

The bottom five devices with the least screen to bezel are the iPhone 5c, Galaxy S, iPhone 4S, iPhone 4, and iPhone 3GS.

The iPhone 5s and iPhone 5's front is 60.6% screen. The iPhone 5c's front is slightly worse at 59.7%. Compare that to the winning LG G2 whose screen takes up 75.7% of the front of the device.

It's not screen size. It's screen vs bezel ratio. The Sony z1 compact is comparable to the iphone in terms of overall footprint but still manages to pack in more screen. I'm rocking a g2 and it's a sight how it's almost all screen, near edge to edge display

Just think about how dropping it can bug the screen like that, edge to edge? Yeah...

Am I the only one noticing the typo in the percentages with commas? And how does the less mean worse since it goes from green to red?

Well, to be fair, the United States is not the only country in the world. Much of continental Europe writes decimals after a comma.

Not a typo at all mate.

gamerscul9870 - February 17, 2014 at 12:01am

How is it not a typo, commas in numbers are only used when it's a thousand.

Not a typo. Most countries use comma as a decimal separator and the dot for the thousands. Europe: one thousand Euros (EUR 1.000,00) The US uses it the other way around: USA: one thousand Dollars (USD 1,000.00) That's more subtle than the Metric System x Imperial System (sorry, but Imperial makes no sense at all. Maybe that's why 99% of the world uses metric.)

This tells us how size should matter when it comes to a product and how useful it is to making room without bags when carrying. The bigger, the worse.

Just try and bend your leg up with it in. I can only bend it up halfway.
